On Monday, February 9, 2026, from 09:30 AM to 11:00 AM, the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Faculty of Pharmacy, Mahidol University, organized a special lecture entitled “Radiopharmaceutical Development Using Metallic Radioisotopes” in Room 701 of the Rajaratana Building. The lecture aimed to promote international academic exchange and strengthen research capacity in radiopharmacy among faculty members and students.
On this occasion, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Wichit Nosoongnoen, Deputy Dean for Research and Innovation, together with Asst. Prof. Dr. Kuntarat Arunrungvichian, Assistant Dean for Academic Affairs, warmly welcomed Prof. Dr. Thomas L. Mindt, a world-renowned expert from the Faculty of Chemistry, Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, University of Vienna, Austria. Prof. Dr. Mindt served as the distinguished speaker, delivering an in-depth presentation on cutting-edge techniques and recent innovations in radiopharmaceutical development using metallic radioisotopes—an essential approach for advancing precision diagnostics and molecular-targeted therapies.
The lecture attracted strong interest from faculty members, researchers, and graduate students, who actively engaged in academic discussions and knowledge exchange. Such interactions are expected to contribute to the development of future international research collaborations between the participating institutions. The event was successfully coordinated by Asst. Prof. Dr. Kuntarat Arunrungvichian and Dr. Chaiyawat Aonsri of the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Faculty of Pharmacy, Mahidol University.
Furthermore, this activity aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being, by supporting research and development of pharmaceutical innovations and medical technologies for effective diagnosis and treatment. It also advances Goal 4: Quality Education through the promotion of advanced learning and knowledge transfer, and Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals, by strengthening international academic collaboration to enhance pharmaceutical education and research at the global level.
